Gawker and BTLS reply to Hogan lawsuit

Gawker.com – the site which released a one minute video of the Hogan sex
tape along with a play-by-play write up of the whole video – responded to
the lawsuit that Hogan filed against the company through their attorney.
“He’s having sex with another man’s wife in another man’s home. I’m not
sure it’s reasonable to say he has an expectation of privacy under the
circumstances,” Cameron Stracher, attorney for Gawker, told Reuters. He
plans to have the judge throw the lawsuit out and not give Hogan a single
cent of the $100 million in damages he’s asking for. Meanwhile, Stephen
Diaco, attorney for Bubba “The Love Sponge,” said that Hulk knew about the
tape despite his claim that he was unaware of it. “Bubba is a victim;
Heather is a victim. Bubba does not know who released this tape,” Diaco
said.

Anyone who believes Bubba the tub sponge is a complete idiot. However, there are holes in this story. Why wait 5-6 years to release the tape if it could have been done from day one? Why would a celebrity like Hulk Hogan allow this to be taped? Who else has access to Bubba’s personal tape collection that would have sold the tape to anyone? Too many questions with no real answers, but I do believe Hogan when he says he had no knowledge of this being taped.

“He’s having sex with another man’s wife in another man’s home. I’m not
sure it’s reasonable to say he has an expectation of privacy under the
circumstances,”

When a spouse consents for another partner to engage in a sexual encounter with their spouse, that person damn well has the right to privacy. He/she got consent from both parties. Sorry Gawker, you will lose this one.
